The day i bowed for these yoruba's propoganda was a time they kinsmen was proud defending tinubu againt a statement made by the northen cabals that tinubu didnt contribute much to buharis emergence as the president financially.these people were proudly saying that atleast tinubu contributed the propoganda that sold buhari to guillible nigerians.i was like 'you mean propoganda ,sheet.in this thread their lagos-ibadan express way media propoganda can't save them in the face of the demand for pictoral evidence and requirements that any thing you claim to produce must be of an indegenious company,not foreign-owned,otherwise they would have innundated us with an endless list of lebanese,indian,chinese,and even igbo companies in lagos and ogun state. they are fumbling and groping for an answer but they can only come up with lame escuses,denial and, as usual, insults.The fact is that nigeria, if it not foreign made,it is Aba-made.nobody can deny that, even though one may like to pretend otherwise.case closed yoruba,igbo no be una mate,make una dey respect una senior.you can now go and eat your amala and ewedu and go sleep b4 my igbo brodas go cause hpb for una.

Bia kete, nothing stops you from establishing the Onitsha-Aba media axis, and using it to counter the Lagos-Ibadan media . Unfortunately, you chaps are so allergic to the truth, that any media outfit set up in the Southeast, ends up dying a natural death. That was how Mike Ajeigbo's media arm MINAJ was closed down due to your people's inability to sustain it. If you doubt me, name 6 solid newspaper outfits in the SE, that are equivalent to the ones in the Southwest.

You were obviously blind to the list of all the Yoruba-owned companies, listed from the beginning of this thread till now. Can you see the kind of hypocrisy that flows through your veins? Biko, swerve commot make beta person see road!

tdayof:
Are you okay? Proforce is Nigerian owned. Let me tell you something, IVM is Japanese then. What a dull logic.

All hail Proforce! IVM is Chinese CKD, not Japanese. The difference is clear, abeg!

Abeg .....get out, noise makers...

your people are just lazy....

In the next 20 years, Igbo's will buy every land in this dame country and make everybody tenants..

innoson have acquired land in Enugu to start manufacturing helicopters and you people are still rotating up and down...

I just need to leave this dame country.....we are been drawn backward...

Guy, just collect this bottle of Viju milk, and enter one corner to lick your wounds and mourn your defeat. Those Yoruba chaps gave you facts, figures, and pictures from many companies owned by their people. You could only copy-and-paste pictures of just 6 companies repeatedly, like a cracked record (i.e. Innoson, Emzor, A_Z, Ngobros, Coscharis, Cutix). Abeg, go siddon! You are even saying you still want to buy land everywhere, in this country. If you do not uproot all the land and take it along with you to your Biafra, may thunder fire your left leg!

Emzor pharmaceutical industry

IGBOS are GREAT

Guy, go back to school. I have already mentioned a company that beats your SE owned pharmaceutical companies, hands down. Oga, it is Drugfield Pharmaceuticals Limited. It is a wholly indigenous Nigerian company, established in 1993 as a drug manufacturing outfit, after approval by relevant agencies and bodies, including the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) and the Pharmacists Council of Nigeria (PCN). It is owned by a family of pharmacists - the Ekundayo family and the Adedipes. They produce a range of therapeutic drugs such as anti-fungals, antibiotics, antivirals, anti-diabetes, anti-hypertensives, analgesics, antihelmiths, haematinics, injectables, intravenous fluids, anti-malarials and multivitamins.

Awolowo001:
Aba daily export hit one million...
Go to Aba--ikot ekpene---calabar road and see many trucks conveying Aba made products including shoes to camerouns and other west African countries through calabar..

Keep kwayiet dia! The man speaking was the President of their Abia Think-tank Association, Sam Ohuabunwa. What data and proof does he have to back up his claims? Where are the shipment records or waybills, the customs manifest etc. Stop supporting his false claims, jare! What is the population of the African countries, that those shoes are going to? Do they buy new shoes every day? Are those shoes now like food, that is eaten everyday? No be today, una don dey do propaganda!

Nwakaumu:
At least you know that they produce the chasis of their cars,which is the backbone of car manufacturing,unlike you afonja fake proforce whose brain only ends in buying toyota hilux to do some cut and weld.no wonder their product has rough finishing and ugly designs.

Produce which chassis? Was any crash test done on them to ascertain their safety and durability?

vanbonattel:
Only one producer of shoes in the whole South West? We export about a million shoes from Aba weekly.

There are quite a few, but many of them are not on the internet. Go back to the previous pages. I had already mentioned T.T Dalk, Haus by Hercules, and now just included Mona Matthews. And stop lying about Aba exporting a million shoes weekly. Exporting it to where? Where are the stats? Supply proof and stop making false allegations.

Awolowo001:
IGBOS are GREAT

Guy, if those your Aba-made shoes are placed beside these elegant ones made in the Southwest, which one do you think would win an award for good quality? Tell the truth and let the devil be ashamed, o! Monalisa Abimbola Azeh makes them in Lagos.

Mona Matthews is a Nigerian company founded by Mrs. Monalisa Abimbola Azeh in 2002. The company produces hand-made shoes with matching bags for women, as well as high quality leather footwear for men. We are able to create whatever shoe size our customer demands. Our styles are very fashion-forward and trendy. We offer bespoke services as well as ready-to-wear shoes. Our shoes fit very comfortably because they are are hand-made to specifications and we use the best quality materials available to make them. http://www.monamatthews.com/

Cutix cables, Nnewi....

IGBOS are GREAT

Which year did Cutix Cables start? They are learners beside Coleman Cables and MicCom Wire & Cables, which are owned by Yoruba chaps. MicCom Wire & Cables, is owned by Prince Tunde Ponnle and his late wife, Mrs. Olufunke Ponnle. They also own MicCom Golf Hotels and Resorts, Ada, Osun State.

Omofunaab2:
THE Anambra State Governor, Mr. Willie Obiano, has approved N13 billion (about $61 million) to bring investments into commercial poultry farming as part of his efforts to turn the state into a model for agriculture.

Signing a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) at the Governor’s Lodge with Lynden Integrated Farms Ltd for the establishment of a modern poultry production and processing farm in the state, Governor Obiano emphasised that agriculture remains the number one pillar in his economic agenda.

He said that the proposed ultra-modern poultry farm, which will be located on a seven hectares of land at Igbariam, would generate no fewer than 250 jobs during construction and 200 permanent jobs as well as 2,000 indirect jobs subsequently.

[/b]According to the governor: “At the moment, all the day-old chicks sold in the South-East are brought in from Oyo State. We want to change that. We want all the day-old chicks sold in this area to come from Anambra State.”[b]

https://t.guardian.ng/news/obiano-approves-n13-billion-for-livestock-farming/

The entire South East depends on us for poultry chicks

This is wicked! You have just finished them! So if Oyo state does not supply Anambra state with day old chicks, it means the poultry business in Anambra would die.... amazing!

You have just proved to us all that the Igbo are traders. That is why they own the supermarkets you listed here. By the way, Spar is not a Lebanese brand. It is jointly owned by the Indians, with a few Yorubas on board. The Yorubas actually own most of the land or real estate, on which quite a number of these supermarkets or superstores are built.

Fineman87:
Go to previous threads. Proforce DOES NOT manufacture cars or buses from scratch. They only strip cars/buses and weld armour metal to them anf assemble. That is all. They are NOT a manufacturing enterprise. It is a welding service firm.

Innoson too does not manufacture vehicles or buses from scratch. They import the parts as CKD (completely knocked down) components and weld them into shape, before assembling them into vehicles. Please be guided!

obaaderemi:
When you keep posting pictures such as these,yorubas will not take you seriously.Those are gas burners that Alhaji Sarafa in my street once made for a client who was setting up a plantain chip business.

You dey mind am? If you go to Igando, Ikotun and Abule Egba area of Lagos state, you will see many local artisans fabricating these things there. It is like a whole industry on its own.

Nwakaumu:
Mr man park well.you ve shifted from go the first pages to showing us boutique and fashion and designing when we should be talking about manufacturing industry.if i slap you eh,body go tell you

Abeg, swerve! Wasn't it your brother that was posting pictures of Aba-made NYSC uniforms all over the place, claiming that such uniforms were only made in the Southeast? I merely let him know other garment manufacturing companies with their own factories, who also produce similar things including uniforms, exist in other parts of the country! What is bad in that? Google up Sam and Sara Limited as well as International Uniforms, so that you can understand what I am talking about!

SwiftNerd:
So that's your new line of defense? Saying he's been posting same pics again. most of the companys you yorubas posted, I just geeked out on them. Most of them are either struggling or dieing away. If you have read this book by Ryn Holiday "Trust me am lieing," you will very much understand how easy it is to get fake press coverage and falsified hype on whatever you are producing or servicing.

There are over 50,000 of good semi big scale businesses worthy of press cover in Abia state alone, but you don't see them making noise for fake PR.

And if you ask why don't the Igbos do same, well we don't need. Our products service at least 65% of the SS markets, more than 75% of the SE, and roughly 45% of the Nigeria market. With good plans to expand to more larger and greener part of Africa.

Even with the strangulating policies enacted by the government, a lot had been achieved.... More could still be done. Kudos to the Igbos

Oga, stop that lie, abeg. Most products made in the Southeast do not enjoy market acceptance in many parts of the North, Southwest and Middle belt. In fact, if you go to many of the local markets in the areas I mentioned, hardly will you find most of the products made in the Southeast. Why?? A lot of your products fall far short on quality standards. Oya, tell me how many showrooms Innoson has in the North, Middle belt and Southwest.

Let me know how many of the noodles, pasta and tissue products made in the Southeast are the market leaders within their product category, in different parts of the country. Most of the goods produced in the Southeast, are distributed within your region, and remain within the SS and SE. So continue being local champions over there within your enclave, biko. Don't bother sending those products down to Lagos and other parts of the country, because very few folks would buy them.

Igbo made NYSC uniform..

Maka gini? Why do you always fall my hand like dis? NYSC uniforms that are being produced by various tailors in different parts of the federation? Ok, what do you want garment manufacturers like Sam and Sara to do, when they read this your childish post? Sam and Sara is a garment manufacturing company that produces garments, uniforms etc., on an industrial level. It is owned by Folake Oyemade.

Sam & Sara started business in 1987 as Bijoux Unisex Collections. It has grown to become a foremost garment manufacturing outfit. Over the years, Sam & Sara has cultivated an enviable pedigree of quality and constantly improved processes of garment production.

We also manufacture accessories such as logo ties, logo scarfs, lanyards e.t.c

At Sam & Sara we know appearance of staff and personnel plays a major role in conveying a positive image of an organization. That is why we operate a customer centric business model that makes the client the focal point of our entire operation. Sam & Sara goes beyond the role of garment producer, we provide an end-to-end services.

In accordance with clients’ needs, we research, develop, design and produce garments to meet the intended purpose and expectations.

Sir Aladekomo founded Chams Limited (now Chams Plc, and listed on the Nigerian Stock Exchange) as the first indigenous computer maintenance outfit in Nigeria in September 1985, almost 30 years ago. Working as the Chief Engineer, he led Chams to deploy Nigeria’s first Wide-Area-Network (WAN) on PCs, and to deploy the country’s pioneer card technology. Sir Aladekomo is also acknowledged as the brain behind the success of the first e-payment card in Nigeria birthed by the Valucard[9] project, working with a consortium of five indigenous Banks.

Under his watch, Chams transformed from a privately held company to public liability company listed on the Nigerian Stock Exchange, differentiating itself in the Nigerian market by focusing on the business of identity management, ceding the increasingly cluttered card technology and transaction payments segments to its subsidiaries, ChamAccess Limited[10] and Card Centre Nigeria Limited. Chams Plc is also the parent company of ChamsSwitch Limited, and ChamsConsortium Limited, and has substantial interest in ChamsMobile[11].

South African own chicken republic and tantalizer..
But chicken republic is been bought over by Stanley of Stanel oil...recently..just this year....

google it...

You know how to lie, sha! Provide the source of your stories please. We do not want beer parlour gossip.

Today, 42 year old Akinyanju heads one of Nigeria’s fastest growing retail chains valued at about $120 million. With about $2 million (N320 million) in seed funding raised from family and friends, he initially had a franchise deal with Chicken Licken, South Africa but quickly established his own brand Chicken Republic. In 2003, he opened a bakery outlet, Butterfield Bakery (a South African brand), which soon became Nigeria’s largest bakery. Deji also own Reeds Thai Restaurant in Lagos and the St. Elmos Pizza franchise in Nigeria. According to him, “We revolutionised the concept of buying international brands into Nigeria. Ever since then, new brands have come into the market. And we set the standard, changed the eating experience for Nigerians and introduced a friendlier, world-class ambience into food.” He says that the market is being driven by the youth. “They want to associate themselves with modern brands and modern ways of eating.”

Since founding Chicken Republic he has grown it to over 70 outlets. When asked by CNBC earlier this year on how his business ventures became successful, he said, “When I started, I didn’t have much experience. If you have passion, the rest is easy to learn, but you can’t teach somebody to be passionate.”http://www.cp-africa.com/2011/12/30/how-deji-akinyanju-founder-of-chicken-republic-built-a-multi-million-dollar-food-business/

Before you mention Capital Oil, please take a look at Forte Oil owned by Femi Otedola, and Conoil owned by Mike Adenuga, as well as Obat Petroleum owned by Oba Akinrutan. Also check Heyden Petroleum owned by Dapo Abiodun. I do not want to mention Oando which is jointly owned by Adewale Tinubu, Omamofe Boyo and Jite. These are major players in the downstream petroleum industry. They are in the big league. They own not just fuel storage depots, but also own oil exploration fields (i.e. oil wells). How many oil wells does Ifeanyi Ubah of Capital Oil, own?

Coscharis Group
is a wholly owned Nigerian Conglomerate with businesses and interests that span across various sectors of the Nigerian economy: Automobile, Medical, Foods & Beverages, Information Technology, Engineering and Agriculture. With globally respected partners and an iconic brand portfolio, Coscharis has continued to be a considerable contributor to Nigeria's economy.

Coscharis Group from its humble beginning proceeded unto the automobile sales as the sole representative of the BMW brand in Nigeria. Thereafter, the success story of being a noble ambassador of the BMW brand in Nigeria made the grand entry of other great brands like Jaguar LandRover, Ford, Mini, Morris Garages and finally the luxurious Rolls-Royce brand into the Nigerian market with Coscharis as the second franchisee in the whole of Africa. Furthermore, within the auto industry Coscharis holds sole franchise of the Abro automotive care brands and the car rental franchise for Sixt Rent a Car through its subsidiary Coscharis Mobility in Nigeria.

Coscharis Group's interest spread beyond the automobile sector with subsidiaries such as Coscharis Technology Ltd that plays big within the ICT sector representing various global brands in Nigeria. Likewise Coscharis' interest in the medical sector is present in Coscharis Medical & Foods Ltd and CG Biostadt. As a result of further diversification of business focus, the Group entered into a Private - Public initiative to engage in the agricultural sector of the economy with the establishment of Coscharis Farms Ltd which aims to become of one of the largest rice producing farms in Nigeria in the nearest future. Coscharis in a bid to consolidate business in the manufacturing sector undertook the bottling and distribution of sachet and table water via Coscharis Beverages Ltd established in 2002 and most recently in 2014 embarked on assembly of Ford rangers in Nigeria through Coscharies group

Is Ford locally assembled in Nigeria??

Or you think the food they sell falls from heaven ??

Chicken republic is the largest in Nigeria lol
We haven't added sweet sensations

They all keep our farmers busy they buy our local produce convert and sell as fast food

You forgot to add Tantalizers! You see in the fast food industry, you Yoruba chaps have nailed it down. Look at it: Sweet Sensation, which is owned by the Kamsons, to Tastee Fried Chicken owned by the Adebayo family, Tantalizers (owned by the Ayenis), Chicken Republic (owned by the Adeyanjus) etc,.... haba! No need for too much talk, abeg!

Tantalizers is a leading Nigerian fast food restaurant chain. It opened its first location in 1997 in Festac Town, Lagos. This first location was initially a small neighborhood restaurant, serving hamburgers.

Lady Kehinde Kamson, KJW, (born 14 August 1961 in Lagos, Nigeria) is a Nigerian entrepreneur, business leader, and philanthropist. She is one of the pioneers in the fast food sector and an outstanding female business leader in Nigeria. She is best known as the Founder and CEO of Sweet Sensation Confectionery Limited – one of the strongest brands in the fast food industry in Nigeria, which she started from a backyard shed and a tiny converted security house with just two used air conditioners and a few other refurbished scrap equipment, after giving up a lucrative accounting career. She is one of those credited with changing the competitive outlook of the Quick Service Restaurant industry in Nigeria thereby leading to the astronomical growth seen in the industry in the 90s and first decade of the 2000s.

The business has since grown to become one of the most successful chain of Quick Service Restaurant businesses in Nigeria with over 25 outlets across the country, over 2,000 employees and over 60 array of meals that are served daily. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kehinde_Kamson

Awolowo001:
You are not ashamed that you are sharing a percentage with an igboman in your own region....

But I thought you people said yoruba own 100% ....
but that lie was bursted....

Now it is, you having larger %.....so how do you expect is to believe this

It is ok. I know you are not smart enough to believe it. Unlike your people that have a 'winner-takes-all' mentality, the Yorubas are accommodating and believe the sky is big enough for all birds to fly....
